[PATCH] add numa node information to struct device
For node-aware skb allocations we need information about the node in struct net_device or struct device. Davem suggested to put it into struct device which this patch does. In particular: - struct device gets a new int numa_node member if CONFIG_NUMA is set - there are two new helpers, dev_to_node and set_dev_node to transparently deal with the non-numa case - for pci devices the node-info is set to the value we get from pcibus_to_node. Note that for some architectures pcibus_to_node doesn't work yet at the time we call it currently. This is harmless and will just mean skb allocations aren't node-local on this architectures until the implementation of pcibus_to_node on these architectures have been updated (There are patches for x86 and x86_64 floating around) [akpm@osdl.org: cleanup] Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Cc: Christoph Lameter <clameter@engr.sgi.com> Cc: Greg KH <greg@kroah.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
